the clapotis of DOOM!!!

well, i finished The Clap. didn't know i started one, did you? i used ~6 skeins of knitpicks shine sport in grass (repurposed from the aborted orangina). i still like this yarn after working with it FOREVER, so i suppose one could call me a fan. hehe...the pattern itself, well...it's long. really long. i know i should have been able to tell; i mean, ~5ft long on size 5 needles! hello! i'm a dork.

however, it is gorgeous. i've mostly been working on this during my lunch at work, but i took it outside on wednesday and i ADORE the sheen of the shine sport in natural light. woo hoo! i actually made it for nadine as a housewarming gift, so it's about a week and a half late. not too bad. i hope she likes it!

pictures forthcoming once i find my camera cord in one of the bazillion boxes in our crafty / office / spare room.
